Industrial waste and storage bins for Australian industry — what’s in the range

Industrial waste and storage bins assist worksites in collecting, storing and removing waste or bulk materials safely and conveniently. East West Engineering’s range includes wheelie bins with forklift bases for moving general waste, fork-skip tipping bins and self-dumping bins for larger-scale emptying, lever-release tipping bins for simplified operator use, and drop-bottom bins for fast discharge from below.

The range also includes heavy-duty crane bins, hydraulic tipping and digging bins, hopper bins and bulk bag hoppers, giving businesses purpose-built solutions for general waste, scrap materials, recyclables, bulk materials and other specialised handling tasks. Used across manufacturing, construction, logistics, mining and warehousing, the right waste management equipment helps improve site efficiency while supporting safer handling practices.

From raw and bulk materials to agricultural produce, production materials, scrap and general waste, choosing the right waste and storage bin is key to safe handling and seamless site operations.

Engineered for demanding Australian industrial conditions

Selecting the right bin for the job takes more thought than simply taking the capacity into account. Industrial bins have to suit the materials they handle, as well as the site on which they operate. Before recommending any equipment, East West Engineering can review the task you plan to undertake and the conditions surrounding it.

Our equipment is used across mining sites, food manufacturing facilities, cold chain operations, construction projects and outdoor yard environments, where durability, reliability and safe handling are essential. Many applications can be met with a standard product, while more specialised requirements may call for a modified or custom-built waste container or storage bin engineered to suit your operation.

45 years of materials handling expertise — what that means for your operation

Safe waste handling is about using the right piece of equipment. With more than 45 years of practical experience in materials handling, East West Engineering provides practical, specialised engineering knowledge with every enquiry.

Rather than simply selecting a product from a catalogue, the team assesses the material being handled, required capacity, handling method, operating environment and any site-specific requirements before recommending the most suitable solution.

With that support comes technical advice on product specs, and assistance with product selection, handling requirements and other product related technical questions. That engineering-led approach helps reduce the risk of incorrect equipment selection while supporting safer, more efficient material handling over the long term.

  • Industrial waste bins are widely used across manufacturing, construction, mining, logistics, warehousing, infrastructure, waste management and agriculture. The right equipment also depends on the operating environment, including outdoor exposure, chemical handling, high-cycle operation and hazardous materials.

  • Yes. Depending on the application, bin dimensions, capacity, materials and discharge requirements can be considered when developing a modified or custom solution. Our engineering team can assess your handling process and worksite to determine whether an existing product can be adapted or a purpose-built solution is more appropriate.

  • First, think about the type of material, the volume being handled and how the bin needs to be emptied. Operation (self-dumping, lever release or drop-bottom), accessibility, including fork pockets or crane lugs, stackability or nesting, and any compliance requirements should also be considered before selecting equipment.

  • East West Engineering’s industrial waste and storage bins are designed to relevant Australian Standards and applicable workplace safety requirements in mind. Supporting certification documentation is supplied where appropriate.
